Persephone Mineral's Sailor Senshi Collection

I really loved the colors from this collection. The only colors I'm disappointed are the Crystal Power colors since it is too gritty for me to try using as eye shadows. I found Mars Flame Sniper, and Jupiter Oak Evolution to be the same in consistency as the Crystal Power shadows. I wish they was more pigmentation to go with the glitter. If I can feel the glitter I won't use them, not because I have sensitive eyes or wear contacts, but because shadows where I can feel the glitter always have one heck of a time applying, they never go on even. In my opinion glitter should never be felt that is a PERSONAL PREFERENCE. The glitter I use in my shadows is bought from TKB, and they have a small enough hex that they cannot be felt between the fingers. I'd have to say I really like all of them. If I had to put them in order of my favorite to least favorite it would be Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and Mercury. The blues, Mercury, could've used a little more Ommphh in my opinion. I look forward to purchasing the Sailor Moon set, but I think that's all I'll be buying for now. I love glitter and shimmer, but for me I need to balance it with a matte shadow in my looks. I know Persephone Mineral's motto is you're never too old for glitter, but too Mich can be overkill. I'd like to see more duo chrome shades without a ton of glitter in the mix. I myself find it hard to make matte shadow for my company, but I know it is a must to reach different types of consumers.
